Annihilator

A Canadian heavy metal institution, Ottawa's Annihilator has been at the fore of the thrash metal scene for over three decades. Emerging in 1984 and led by guitarist, vocalist, and sole constant member Jeff Waters, the band has sold over three million albums worldwide since debuting in 1989 with the influential and uncompromising Alice in Hell. Part of the "big four" of Canadian thrash metal alongside Sacrifice, Voivod, and Razor, Annihilator has unleashed dozens of acclaimed studio efforts over the years, including Never, Neverland (1990), Set the World on Fire (1993), Schizo Deluxe (2005), Feast (2013), and Ballistic, Sadistic (2020).
